Sephora by OPI polish in "Ms. Can't Be Wrong".
A pretty, dark magenta color with a little shimmer to it. I still want to stick to darker shades til the spring, but I thought I would do something a little different from the black and dark wine shades everyone is wearing these days...
Staying kinda low key on the weekly splurges considering I've been buying clothes lately too. =P
I'm actually pretty satisfied with how quickly my wardrobe has progressed since I became more practical about where I shop!
I would LOVE to have a closet full of designer gear... but with the way the economy is, it seems gluttonous to spend designer dollars when you can find ways to be attractive on a reasonable budget.
Plus your clothes start adding up a LOT faster when the price tag is realistic. ;)
Though I still don't believe in wearing cheap fabric! There are plenty of clothes made of decent material you can find at affordable prices.
This may be a matter of personal opinion, but I have always thought that cheaply made clothing LOOKS cheap, and the clothes you wear is what people's impression of you is. (This is why I avoid stores with no return policy, stores that sell kitchen appliances in ADDITION to clothes, and club clothes stores like the PLAGUE)
A lot of this goes back to the "age" thing too. When you reach a certain age, you should look put together. You are older and wiser so your wardrobe should reflect a level of sophistication. And I think the sophistication level should INCREASE as you get older.
The tough thing is finding the balance... Even those of us who are creeping to the thirties have to realize that we are still really young- and our wardrobe should be fun.
We have to be able to look more polished than the under twenty-fivers, but not come off looking OLDER than our age either!
Geesh. This is a tough age.
Anyhoo, I haven't had much opportunity to get all dolled up recently, so I'm really excited about being able to celebrate my longtime buddy Tina's 27th birthday at LOLA's tonight!! YAY, I get to sport my new nail color too! lol
I'll update you guys with pics tomorrow!!
